Chapter 21: Refining the Immortal Origin
The Qian Kun Dao Jing is the cultivation method that Ding Yan had been practicing for thousands of years in his past life. In that life, he relied on this daoist scripture to reach the height of crossing the calamity period and was once a cultivator who was admired by tens of thousands of people. After returning his soul to the body, Ding Yan never gave up trying to cultivate the Qian Kun Dao Jing again.
Because no one understands it better than him, this Taoist scripture is powerful.
According to legend, the Qiankun Dao Jing is a relic left behind by the immortal realm. It was first discovered when a lone cultivator without any sect or school cultivated this method and reached the height of merging with the universe. At the stage of merging, one has basically become a towering figure in the cultivation world, equivalent to the North Star. Those who can reach this level are inseparable from their own mental state and the support of their sect.
However, a lone cultivator actually reached this level, it's hard not to suspect that he had some kind of extraordinary encounter.
The Qiankun Dao Jing was discovered at that time.
After countless killings, the loose cultivator fell, and the Qian Kun Dao Jing disappeared with him. Many years later, it was inadvertently obtained by an ancestor of the Qian Kun Sect. It is said that at that time, the Qian Kun Sect was not called Qian Kun Sect, and the sect's strength was also very lowly, in the Xiu Zhen world, it could only be considered a second-rate sect.
That predecessor who obtained the Kunlun Dao Jing hid the news of his obtaining the Dao Jing, then closed himself off to cultivate in solitude. Two thousand years later, he emerged once more, and subsequently welcomed the Heavenly Tribulation that had not appeared in the Cultivation Realm for ten thousand years!
Cross Tribulation Cultivator!
That predecessor failed to cross the tribulation, but successfully transformed into a free and unconstrained immortal.
With the presence of the Xianzun, Qiankun Sect rapidly expanded and became the Tai Shan Bei Dou of the Xiuzhen world. Later, after countless generations of inheritance, the Qiankun Dao Jing also became the first technique of the Qiankun Sect, which only the sect leader's disciples were allowed to practice.
Ding Yan's generation, those who cultivated the Qiankun Dao Jing, including him, only had three people in total.
Holding Xianyuan, Dingyan's mind kept recalling the operation method of Qiankun Daojing, again and again.
It wasn't long before Ding Yan suddenly stretched out his hand and drew a seal, but he quickly shook his head in denial. He then re-entered meditation, and after a short while, he raised his hand again to draw another seal. This seal had only one style, but it was extremely intricate. Moreover, due to the vague nature of this seal, Ding Yan could mostly rely on his own experience and knowledge to perfect it.
Time passed minute by minute, second by second, and the Qiankun Dao Jing in Ding Yan's body had already been operating at its limit. And the Xian Yuan in his left hand was still as usual, without any signs of being refined.
For that blurry handprint, Ding Yan deduced more than a hundred incomplete handprints.
Each of the incomplete prints seemed to contain a hint of the mysterious technique, but which one was correct, even Ding Yan himself was uncertain, and it would take trial after trial to determine.
"The last resort has been used, if it still doesn't work, then there's no choice but to give up..." Ding Yan muttered to himself.
With a wave of his hand, he suddenly threw out the last handprint that had been unfolding in his mind.
The palm print flew out and transformed into a ray of light, which then condensed into an ancient rune in mid-air.
The handprint is different, and the strokes are also different.
The last symbol, in Ding Yan's perception, was a bit like the 'Xian' character from ancient characters he knew in his past life, but not entirely the same. The mysterious symbol, after lingering in the air for a moment, suddenly burst open, and countless star points transformed into a semi-transparent ring-shaped light that spread out.
At the same time, Ding Yan's body had reached the extreme limit of the Qian Kun Dao Jing, and a slight change actually appeared!
Ding Yan Meng suddenly stood up, and the Xian Yuan that was originally in his hand had long since disappeared without a trace.
Spread out your palm, and Ding's words stirred in his heart.
A tiny power, like a candle flame in size, appeared on his palm.
This is an unnamed power, neither yuanli nor xianyuan!
"How is this possible? He actually managed to cultivate his strength!" Ding Yan exclaimed in shock.
Originally, Dingshen just wanted to try and see if he could strengthen his own consciousness through the refinement of Xianyuan. Who would have thought that by mistake, he actually cultivated a nameless power? It must be known that in the Illusory Nine Heavens, everyone is only a conscious existence. In their bodies, no power will exist, and the divine techniques used here are basically just some representations, unrelated to divine power, just like a martial arts master's muscles have nothing to do with internal energy.
However, Ding Yan has cultivated a nameless power here!
In the illusory nine heavens where only spiritual bodies exist, power has been cultivated!
This power is now extremely weak, but it has the potential for growth. This means that in the future, if Ding Yan can cultivate this power to a certain extent, then in this illusory Nine Heavens, there will be no one who can be his opponent! It's just like suddenly appearing among ordinary people, an unparalleled master who can use internal force. At that time, Ding Yan will be the only existence in this world who can use the complete Divine Communication Technique.
"Could it be the last handprint's cause? Immortal art, immortal art... Could this be the power of immortal art?" Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Ding Yan began to recall the seal just now.
Time and time again.
Until he had completely engraved this handprint in his mind and was certain that he would not forget it, Ding Yan only then opened his eyes again.
With a wave of his sleeve, he took out another immortal yuan from his sleeve and placed it in the palm of his hand.
This time, Ding Yan did not enter a meditative state, but instead stared intently at the Xianyuan in his hand. At the same time, the Qiankun Dao Jing inside his body began to circulate again, and with a flip of his left hand, the incomplete handprint reappeared.
The runes appear, then shatter.
At the moment when the rune shattered, a burst of cyan light exploded from within the Xianyuan in Ding Yan's hand.
Ding Yan's eyes narrowed, and a hint of yin and yang flashed in his pupils. The Xian Yuan grain in Ding Yan's palm suddenly shrunk at a visible speed, disappearing into dust within a few breaths, dispersing into the snowy air. At the same time, the mysterious power inside Ding Yan grew again.
"This power is obtained from refining the Xianyuan!" A hint of enlightenment flashed through Ding Yan's mind.
After understanding this point, Ding Yan took out all the remaining Xianyuan and refined them all at once.
When the last grain of Xianyuan was refined, the power in Ding Yan's body had already grown to the size of a baby's fist.
"Go collect some more spirit coins."
Thinking of this, Ding Yan plunged again, scattered his spiritual awareness and began to search for the hidden Xian Yuan among the snowflakes.
Half a day later.
Ding Yan's figure reappeared on a snowy mountain, and this time he had more than 20 Xianyuan in his hand. In half a day, being able to collect over 20 was indeed a terrifying speed. However, Ding Yan being able to collect so many Xianyuan wasn't accidental, mainly because of his extremely strong soul perception. If someone else were to try, they would absolutely not be able to achieve this effect.
With the Xianyuan in hand, I am waiting for the moment of refinement.
A faint figure suddenly appeared in front of Ding Yan...
